MA, CAN WE GO TO "JACK IN THE BOX"

Today, as I sit here in this room of mine that is decorated all in pink (Jeannette's fav.), I think of her.


I remember years ago when she was just 15 years of age.


She had so many friends and right before Valentine's Day, they all went to Fashion Fair to shop.  About four hours later I received a phone call from Jeannette telling me that they needed a ride home because they all had spent all the money and that nobody had change for the bus.  So, I stopped what I was doing at the time and headed out to the mall to pick them up.  I drove each one of her friends home.  Finally, as I headed back home with Jeannette in the passenger side she said to me, "Ma, you are amazing and so nice to have done this for all of us."  I smiled.  Then about a minute later she said, "Ma, can we go to "Jack in the Box."  I laughed.  I just loved my teenage girl.  We went through the drive-thru and she got her Jumbo Jack, fries and milkshake.  I made her happy.
